Lautenberg announcement increases urgency of TSCA legislation

Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., is retiring after 2014 but says he will reintroduce a bill to reform the Toxic Substances Control Act before he leaves office. The American Cleaning Institute says it "remains very focused on achieving the goal of a robust and credible federal chemical management program. We expect that effort to continue within industry and certainly on Capitol Hill."
